Panal

This lounge chair is the product of a two week collaboration with an artisan in Malinalco, Mexico who works with different weaving technics applied to clothing, bags and different types of fabrics.

The design of the chair consists of two pine wood frames that are very rigid and a very organic weave that holds them together. The difference between the frames and the weave symbolize the collaboration between two very different designers that came together to create one product.

With this chair we wanted to explore with natural materials, so we decided to use izote -a natural fiber produced in the area- as thread to weave the back and sit of the chair. For the design of the back we chose a three dimensional type of weave to give support and for the seat we combined weaving with small pieces of wood to give structure.

Coleo

The idea behind this coffee table was to create something that could work as a table and also as storage space for small apartments. The support structure is made out of plastic and casted as one solid piece to create contrast of material and shape between the planes that produce the surface and the structure that supports them.

Modular Prototype

Modular unit developed that can be replicated as many times as necessary to be used architecturally as a cover or facade.

Depending on the way the unit is arranged it creates different patterns with openings and closures.
